About this event
Join artist Sally Gilford on her campaign for the visibility of the Bittern.
We will venture into Wigan Flash on a mindful forage to collect natural form commonly found in and around the Bitterns habitat.
Then we will head back to our pop up workshop to create gel prints which will reflect the fragility and beauty of nature in this magical green space.
Each participant will have the opportunity to create one of a kind prints to take home at the end of the workshop!
This workshop involves walking around the flash as a group, please wear suitable clothing / footwear.
This is a messy workshop, aprons will be provided but please don't wear your Sunday best!
Younger children will need support from parents. Please book a ticket per participant, as there are limited spaces.
Please note that toilets will not be present during this event. All sites are accessible for all.
We will be at the Wellham Road entrance - you should be able to see our Gazebo!
